Selecting a task line, Wrapping text and Increas the height of a c

[Scrufnut]

I am using a Project Schedule from another employee and I am unable to do
three things I am normally able to do. (1) I cannot click on the task number
and select the entire line. (2) I cannot adjust the height of the task line.
And (3) I cannot wrap the text within a cell.
Is there someway in which the previous owner may have locked the Gantt Chart?

Hello scrufnut,

You cannot lock the Gantt chart but by modifying the table you can
disable the ability to select a row and thereby change row height. It's
done by unlocking the first column in the table.

Try View > Table: current table name > More tables. The table applied
should be selected in the More Tables dialog box. Click the Edit
button, and in the Table Definition dialog box, enable (check) the "Lock
first column" checkbox.

I hope this helps. Let us know how you get along.
